The ISBN system was devised beginning in 1967, and books published prior to then don't have "editions" associated with them. It's very similar with movie, music and video game UPCs. It's also possible that a seller listed an item with us and didn't include an ISBN/UPC with the listing. You'll find items like this by clicking this link.

Reviews of A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations: Chicago Style for Students and Researchers

Essential for Chicago Style Mar 13, 2014

Great Update Oct 24, 2013

This edition is helpful for anyone doing work in the humanities. As a graduate student in history it is imperative that I am constantly aware of the changes being made to the citation style that I employ in my papers.

reader text Mar 3, 2011

This text is not meant to be flipped through for reference. The type is difficult to read for that purpose. I found it hard to locate the tools I needed in writing a research paper. It is helpful to read it in its entirety.
